Busted Halo is the Paulist media ministry that helps people understand the Catholic faith, put it into practice in their everyday lives, and share it with others.

Busted Halo’s vision is for a more joyful and meaningful experience of Catholicism that positively impacts people’s lives. Through articles, video, podcasts, radio, and social media, Busted Halo aims to bring the joy of the Gospel to all people in innovative and creative ways. We value the experiences and questions of people seeking to better understand their faith and offer resources to better comprehend and share the richness of the Catholic faith.

Following its long-standing commitment to young adults in their 20s and 30s, Busted Halo offers the digital toolkit, Young Adult Ministry in a Box, a resource designed to help parishes start young adult ministry from scratch.

What’s Up With the Name?

Catholic belief is that all God’s children are “saints in the making,” yet our life’s journey is fraught with imperfections, struggles, and mistakes. Each of us sports a Halo that is either dented, scratched, tarnished… in some way Busted. God loves us despite this and continually calls us to polish our halos up to a nice golden shine.
